Download the PHP package zachleigh/yarak without Composer

On this page you can find all versions of the php package zachleigh/yarak. It is possible to download/install these versions without Composer. Possible dependencies are resolved automatically.

FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Release Notes

Moving from 1.1. to 1.2.

The core command wrapper has been extracted to a separate package (zachleigh/artisanize). Where possible, Yarak classes have been maintained for the time being in order to minimize update issues. However, some interface type declarations may need to be updated after isntalling the new version.

Install

Requirements

This package assumes you have the following:

Install via composer

Register the service

Yarak requires the following config values in this structure:

Yarak uses your application's config so if your config is already structured this way, simply add the necessary values. If your config strategy differs from this, you have several options. First, you can create a specific Yarak config key and set all values there:

Then, when registering the service pass the config path:

If the config path is multiple levels deep, use dot notation:

If you wish to add config values when registering Yarak, pass them as an array and Yarak will merge them into your existing config:

Lastly, you can pass all config values when registering the service. Pass 'false' as the second parameter to the Kernel constructor to turn off config merging.

Create a yarak file

In the project root, create a file called yarak. This file needs to do the following:

Example:

The above example is included in the project at yarak/src/yarak_example. Copy it into your project with the following command, done from the project root:

Once the yarak file exists, make it executable:

Add the database directory to the composer autoloader

Because migrations do not follow psr-4 naming conventions, load them with a classmap.

You may have to dump the composer autoload cache for the change to take affect.

Test to make sure that it is working in the console:

Database

Yarak gives users several helpful database functionalities that make development easier.

Generating Database Directories And Files

All database and migration functionalites require a standardized file hierarchy. To generate this hirearchy, use the db:generate command:

This will create a database directory at the path set in the Yarak config. The database directory will contain migration, seeder, and factory directories and some file stubs to help you get started.

Model Factories

Model factories provide a simple way to create testing data using the Faker library.

Defining Factories

Model factories are located in the /database/factories directory. This directory and a stub factory file can be created using the php yarak db:generate command.

To define a factory, use the define method on a variable called $factory. The define method has the following method signature:

The first argument is the full name/namespace of the class. The second argument is a callback that returns an array. This array must contain the data necessary to create the model. The third optional argument is a name for the factory. Setting the name allows you to define multiple factories for a single model.

To create a simple user model factory:

To create a named user model factory:

The ModelFactory class responsible for creating model instances extends Phalcon\Mvc\User\Component and has access to the DI and any services registered. To access the ModelFactory class, use the $factory variable in the $attributes closure.

Using The Factory Helper

Yarak comes with a global factory helper function to make creating model instances simple. The factory function returns an instance of ModelFactoryBuilder which can be used to either make or create models. Calling make on the returned class simply makes the model class, but does not persist the data in the database. Calling create creates the class and persists it in the database.

Make a user model isntance, but don't persist it:

Create a user model and persist it:

Making Multiple Model Instances

If you require multiple instances of the model class, pass an integer as the second argument to factory:

When more than one model is made, an array of models is returned.

Overriding The Default Attributes

To override the default attributes set in the factory definition, pass an array of overrides to make or create:

Using Named Factories

To use a name factory, pass the name as the second argument to the factory function:

To make multiple instances of a named factory, pass the desired number of instances as the third argument:

Model Relationships

When making model instances that require model relationships to also be built, you have a couple options.

First, you can manually create related models. In this example, we have Posts and Users which have a one-to-many relationship: a post can only belong to one user but a user can have many posts. The posts table contains a users_id column that references the id column on the users table. Posts table migration:

First, we need to create factories for both users and posts:

To create three users with one post each, we could simply loop over newly created users and create a post for each, sending the user id as an attribute override:

For multiple posts, simply pass the desired number as the second variable to the factory helper:

Another way to create relationships is by using a closure returning a relationship in a factory definition:

Here we are using a factory within the factory to create a new user for each new post created. We are also naming the factory 'withUser' for convenience. To create 20 posts made by 20 users, we can simply do this:

Database Seeding

Database seeding gives you the ability to fill your database with testing data in a matter of seconds.

Creating Database Seeders

To create an empty database seeder file, use the make:seeder command:

This will generate an empty seeder file in /database/seeds. It is recommended to create separate seeder files for individual database tables.

Writing Database Seeders

All database seeders must have a run method where the database seeding logic is defined. In the run method, do whatever is necessary to fill the database table. Using model factories makes this process simple to acheive. An example seeder for a users tables might look like this:

Running this seeder will create five users in the database.

The parent Seeder class has a call method that will call the run method on other seeder files. This allows you to create several seeder files and then make a master DatabaseSeeder that will fill the entire database. We already have a UsersTableSeeder above, so let's now make a PostsTableSeeder:

This will create 5 posts for each of our users. We can then combine our two seeder files in a master DatabaseSeeder file:

This will run each seeder file in the order they are listed. First, we will create five users with the UsersTableSeeder, then for each of those users, we will create five posts with the PostsTableSeeder.

Using Database Seeders

To run database seeder files, use the db:seed command:

The default seeder name is 'DatabaseSeeder'.

You may also use the --seed flag with the migrate:refresh command:

:exclamation:Refreshing the database will remove all data from your database. This command will drop all tables, run all the migrations again, then fill the database using the given seeder class name. The default value for the seeder name is 'DatabaseSeeder'.

Migrations

Yarak migrations provide a simple, clean way to manage your database.

Generating Migrations

All migrations are stored in databaseDir/migrations. The databaseDir path may be set when registering the Yarak service.

To generate migrations, use the make:migration command:

The migration name must be snake_case and will be used to create the migration file name and class name. For example:

Using the name create_users_table will generate a migration class called CreateUsersTable. Migration file names are generated using a timestamp and the given name. In this example, the generated file name might look something like this: 2017_03_04_055719_create_users_table.php.

If you are creating a new table, using the --create flag plus the name of the database table will create a migration file with some additional boiler plate to save a little time.

Writing Migrations

Yarak uses Phalcon's Database Abstraction Layer to interact with the database. This guide will only cover the most common operations. For more detailed information about what is possible, please see the API Documentation. Because the official Phalcon migrations also use the database abstraction layer, the Phalcon migration documentation may also be useful.

Creating Tables

To create a table, use the $connection variable's createTable method.

To create a simple users table, your up method might look something like this:

The definition array must contain a columns array, and can also include indexes, references, and options arrays. To define columns use Phalcon's DB Column class class, for indexes use the DB Index class, and for foreign keys use the DB Reference class.

For more information, see the official documentation.

Updating Tables

To modify a column, use the $connection variable's modifyColumn method:

Continuing the example above, our email column size is currently set to 20 which is clearly not big enough. To modify this, we can create a new migration:

In the created migration's up method, we can write the following:

Keep in mind that when using the Column class, type is required.

To add additional columns to a table, use the addColumn method:

So if we want to add an active column to our users table, we create a new migration:

And our migration up method could look like this:

The official documentation contains some additional examples and information which may be helpful.

The Down Method

In order for migraion rollbacks to work, migrations must contain a down method where the process described in the up method is reversed. To continue our above example, when creating the users table, our down method would use the dropTable method:

When modifying the email column, we could simply modify the column so that it returns to it's previous state:

When adding the active column, use the dropColumn method:

Running Migrations

To run all pending migrations, simply use the Yarak migrate command:

This will run all migrations that have not yet been run. Migrations that are run at the same time will be in the same 'batch' and will be rolled back together.

Rolling Back Migrations

:exclamation:Before rolling back, be aware that all data in the tables you rollback will be lost.

To rollback the last batch of migrations, call migrate:rollback:

Use migrate:rollback with the optional --steps flag to rollback more than one batch.

This will rollback the last two batches of migrations.

Resetting The Database

Using the migrate:reset command will rollback all migrations.

:exclamation:Resetting the database will remove all data from your database. Be sure any data you wish to keep is backed up before proceeding.

Refreshing The Database

Refreshing the database will rollback all migrations and then re-run them all in a single batch.

:exclamation:Refreshing the database will remove all data from your database. Be sure any data you wish to keep is backed up before proceeding.

When using the migrate:refresh command, you may also use the --seed flag to run all your Using Database Seeders for more information.

Custom Commands

Yarak can also be extended and used as a general command line task runner.

Generating Console Directories And Files

To generate all the directories and files necessary for the console component to work, use the console:generate command:

This will create a console directory, a commands directory, an example command, and a Kernel.php file where you can register your custom commands. If the config value namespaces => root is set, Yarak will use file path information and the set root namespace to automatically generate namespaces. If you use a non-standard namespace, set namespaces => console as shown below.

Generating Custom Commands

Before generating a custom command, be sure to include consoleDir in your config. You may also register a console namespace if the automatically generated namespaces are incorrect. By default, custom commands with be in the defined console directory in a folder called commands. You can override this by registering a commandsDir.

Do not forget to register your console namespaces with the Phalcon loader.

Once consoleDir is registered, use the make:command command to generate a custom command stub.

Writing Custom Commands

A command class has three components: a signature, a description, and a handle method.

signature is where you define your command's name, arguments, and options. This is discussed in detail below. description is where you can set a description message for your command to be displayed when using the console. The handle method will be called when the command is fired and is where you should write the logic for your command. It may be useful to extract the bulk of your logic to a separate service class.

Command Signature

The command signature is written in the same way that the command will be used in the console and consists of three parts: the command name, arguments, and options. The command name must come first in the signature and can be namespaced by prefixing the command name with a namespace followed by a colon (':'):

Arguments and options are enclosed in curly braces and follow the command name. Options are prefixed by two dashes ('--').

Defining Command Arguments

A standard argument consists of the argument name wrapped in curly braces:

The argument name, arg in the example above, is used to access the argument value via the argument method.

To make an argument optional, append a question mark ('?') to the argument name:

To give the argument a default value, separate the argument name and the default value with an equals sign ('='):

If no value is provided for the argument, the default value will be used.

If the argument is in array form, append an asterisk ('*') to the argument name:

Arguments can then be passed to the command by space separating them:

This will set the value of arg to ['one', 'two', 'three'].

Argument arrays can also be set as optional:

When accessing optional argument arrays, arguments that have not been passed equal an empty array.

It is often helpful to provide a description with an argument. To do this, add a colon (':') after the argument definition and append the description:

Defining Command Options

A standard option consists of the option, prefixed by two dashes ('--'), wrapped in curly braces:

The option name, opt, is used to access the argument value via the option method. Standard options do not take values and act as true/false flags: the presence of the option when the command is called sets its value to true and if it is not present, the value is false.

To define an option with a required value, append an equals sign ('=') to the option name:

To set a default value, place it after the equals sign:

Options may also have shortcuts to make them easier to remember and use. To set a shortcut, prepend it to the command name and separate the two with a pipe ('|'):

Now, the option may be called inthe standard way:

Or by using the shortcut:

Options may also be passed as arrays:

When passing options arrays, each value must be prefixed by the option name:

The value of opt will be set to ['one', 'two', 'three'].

Just like with arguments, the option description can best by appending a colon (':') and the description to the option name definiton:

Accessing Command Arguments And Options

To access arguments in the handle method, use the argument method:. If an argument name is given, it will return the value of the argument and if nothing is passed, it will return an array of all arguments:

The option method works in the exact same way:

There are also hasArgument and hasOption methods on the command object:

Asking for confirmation

The confirm method can be used to ask the user for a simple confirmation

Ask a question

In case an open question needs to be prompted the user, the ask method can be used. The second argument provides a default fallback

Ask for a password

The user answer can be hidden by using the askPassword method

Choosing from a list

The choose method only allows an answer from a predefined list of choices

Auto-completion

The anticipate method can provide the user some auto-completion help when starting to write. The user can still choose any answer, regardless of the auto-completion hints

Multi choice

When the user should be allowed to choose more than a single answer, the choice method allows to select them from a list

Command Output

Every command has an output variable stored on the object that has several methods to help write output to the console.

The write method outputs plain unformatted text, writeInfo outputs green text, writeError outputs red text, and writeComment outputs yellow text:

The output variable is a simple wrapper around Symfony's output class. To access this class, use the getOutputInterface method:

Keep in mind that the Yarak command class simply wraps up the Symfony console component. All Symfony command features are available on your custom command object. See the Symfony console component documentation for more details.

Using Custom Commands

Before using your custom command, you must register it in the command Kernel $commands array:

Onces registered, the commands may be used like any other Yarak command:

Calling Yarak In Code

To call a Yarak command from your codebase, use the Yarak::call static method.

For example, to call migrate:rollback --steps=2:

Yarak will use the default DI to get its settings. If the resolved default DI is not working, pass an instance of Phalcon\Di as the third argument to the call method:

If you are running PHP 5.6 or lower, using the static call method may result in the following error message:

To avoid this error, pass the $di as the third variable to Yarak::call as shown above.
